Hi,

What is the workflow from Memento to obtain meshes into Revit (not points cloud with RCS/RCP format)?

I already post the same subject but it seam it is a issue for Revit. You find below : my post into ReCap forum

Best regards

From Memento the only way to get the information into Revit is with the RCP,RCS format. Revit can't import the OBJ,FBX,STL or PLY file types.

Hi Robin,

I'm arleday aware Revit Capabilty import.

Have a look to the link embeded into my initial question (below you've got an extract):

Why import mesh into Revit (or others CAD in Autodesk Porfolio) ==> it is to obtain a real objet with physical behavior.

For instance, il will give you a lot of reasons into in Revit :

1- when you will try to make a rendering on points cloud ==> the points cloud disappears,

2- you can't have shadow on on points cloud,

3- in perspective view, you can see through points cloud,

The best thing, it is to implement FBX import into Revit, Inventor (as it was made for InfraWork 360 and 3 dsMax for instance).

regards,

Olivier
